Bhagavad Gita · Chapter 18: Freedom through Renunciation
Bhagavad Gita 18.65
मन्मना भव मद्भक्तो मद्याजी मां नमस्कुरु ।
मामेवैष्यसि सत्यं ते प्रतिजाने प्रियोऽसि मे ॥
manmanā bhava madbhakto madyājī māṃ namaskuru | māmevaiṣyasi satyaṃ te pratijāne priyo'si me ||
Fix your mind on me, be devoted to me, worship me, and bow to me. You will come to me; I promise you this truly, for you are dear to me.
Modern context
This repeats the last verse of chapter 9, with one addition: 'I promise you this truly, for you are dear to me.' The promise is personal and certain. Fix your mind on me, love me, worship me, bow to me, and you will come to me. It is the simplest summary of the path of devotion, sealed with a promise made out of love.
